Slog - Comments on Shooting in the International District http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/05/shooting_in_the_international_district Police responded to a call about a shot fired on the corner of Rainier Avenue South and South King Street just after 2AM this morning. They found a man in his 30s or 40s who had been fatally shot in the head. Police have not recovered a weapon at the scene but homicide detectives are looking for an acquaintance of the victim. I'll update as info becomes available....

North of I-90 is so not Rainier Beach. I get the feeling that most of the folks over there have never even been to Rainier Beach.

Last night I gave a friend who lives right by there a ride home. The shooting happened by that scary, vacant-except-for-blackberry-brambles-and-drug-addicts lot on the northwest corner of Rainier and Dearborn. Even though they fear the ridiculous traffic that a big-ass Target parking lot will bring, a lot of them would prefer that to the horrors currently going on over there.
